Agricultural utility.
Anitawa is a medium early variety with good resistance to dry conditions and good winter hardiness. Characterized by a high density of the sward. Variety high yield potential combined with high feed reproductive capacity. The variety has low soil requirements.

Cultivation for green matter;
Red fescue can be grown in pure stand or as undersown in spring barley.
When grown in pure stand pre-applied mineral fertilizers at a dose of approximately 40 - 50 kg N, 60-90 kg P2O5 and 80-120 kg K2O per ha. In the full use of phosphate fertilizers in quantities of 100-120 kg P2O5 per ha may be sown at once in early spring, while the nitrogen and potassium should be supplied to each set in a dose of 40-60 kg N and 40-50 kg K2O per ha.
Sowing red fescue undersown should be increased as the phosphorus-potassium fertilization of spring barley by about 40%.
Pre-sowing crops in the band should strive for accurate alignment weed free fields.
When grown in pure stand should be 12-15 kg of seeds sown per 1 ha, while in plant protection around 15-20 kg / ha.
In the year we make full use of 3-4 sets.

Growing the seeds
Red fescue for seed collection should be grown in areas with lower rainfall, on soils of class III b-IV b. Seed crops must be assumed in the weed free fields.
When grown for seed is sown rational red fescue in early spring in spring barley, a reduced amount of seed grain. Make sowing a cover crop in the first place. Then across the rows are planted grass seed to a depth of 1.5 cm.
The recommended sowing rate for red fescue is 8 kg per ha.
In each year of the harvest to sow 100-120 kg P2O5 and 100-120 kg K2O per ha and nitrogen at doses of 30-50 kg per ha in early spring and 40-60 kg per ha after harvest of seed, or plant protection.
For weed control in spring barley with undersown red fescue can be used Chwastox liquid, M weeds, or weeds Extra. The destruction of couch grass proper Fusilade applied at a dose of 4 l / ha.
The set of red fescue seed can be carried by the following method:
- Collection in two phases – mowing and threshing by combine
